This is the way we like our HD remakes - a fun, nostalgic dive into the past. We're willing to overlook the lack of online options, although we don't understand why the second game wasn't included in the collection.

Like all of the HD remakes that have come out in the past few years, Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection is meant to capitalize on the nostalgia from older players who want their favorites on a current system, with the appropriate care taken during the transition. In a way, it works.

The first half of Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection is near pointless, but fans of the franchise will be delighted with Budokai 3. It's still the most balanced and detailed Dragon Ball fighting game available, and is a testament to how good licensed games can be when given the opportunity to evolve. It's just a shame that we never got a fourth instalment.

A correct adaptation to HD hardware, but the lack of additions and not including the second episode of the series make us recommend it exclusively to those nostalgic gamers who miss playing those PS2 titles.

The Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection is pretty dumb. Budokai 3 is still a great game, but the lack of any kind of online mode and the crazy absence of Budokai 2, transform a good chance into a sad nonsense.

Wow talk about nostalgia! If you never played dragonball z budokai 1 or 3 then you might want to skip budokai 1 & go straight for budokai 3! IWow talk about nostalgia! If you never played dragonball z budokai 1 or 3 then you might want to skip budokai 1 & go straight for budokai 3! I played the first budokai when it first released & I gotta say....it still sucks lol because its just as stiff as I remember so I didn't play it much & went for budokai 3 which I never played! If your like me & have dragonball z burstlimit(yea I still have & play burstlimit) but never played budokai 3 then I suggest you pick up this collection ONLY for this game! What it does besides burstlimit(strange since it burstlimit came out years later after budokai 3) is give you more characters which is why I enjoy it so much..dragon universe is a nice touch on story mode as each characters have specific story points to play out also it has a tournament mode with three difficulties but the best thing about budokai 3 is that each character has lots of moves to assign! Controls are smooth though not as smooth as burstlimit & the HD look went over pretty good! The bad part about budokai 3 is that even though its an HD remake burstlimit still beats it...& there's no online option...YET! I'm sure they will release an update that supports online play but some people like yourboss gave it a zero because its not online yet & plays exactly the same with no new features?! Maybe rate it a 6 or a 7 for no online... play but hes just trolling a great classic as for the no new features...who cares...silent hill only had new voices & HD graphics...metal gear HD only had HD graphics & both games cant be played online but peacewalker can but who cares so as a fan of dragball z games excluding dragonball z raging blast 2(1st raging blast was good) & that abortion/ rock paper scissors/leave all skills in your basement dragonball ultimate tenkaichi garbage this game is a safe pick up for anyone who missed budokai 3 & to a lesser extent budokai 1....oh & its good they excluded budokai 2...it sucked but besides that do you really need budokai 2 when budokai 3 surpasses it in all categories? That's right....we don't need it...8/10…Expand

This collection is alright, it's for the fans who want to take a trip down memory lane. The only thing I don't like about the collection isThis collection is alright, it's for the fans who want to take a trip down memory lane. The only thing I don't like about the collection is the fact that it doesn't have online for Budokai 3. As for the omission of Budokai 2, as much as I loved it back then, I didn't mind it not being in the collection.…Expand
